Don't be afraid to take your EV on a cross country trip. I would not hesitate a bit. Everyone who has one got those jitters the moment they planned a trip. The vehicle will point out the chargers along your way and for how long you have to charge. Join EA or EV GO or any other network in your...

My production week was for 6/6. Then updated to 6/13. Did not see the built update until 7/2. According to Ford the vehicle was completed on 6/23 but was on a lot adjacent to the factory for further tests/checks. I got a bit curious. Attempted to hail my Lightning. Another member tried that and...

While we are talking about Tesla Superchargers opening up to non Tesla vehicles, here comes GM and Flying J/Pilot stations collaborating with EV GO to introduce fast charging across their entire network of fueling stations. We gonna have to wait though until 2025. GM and EV GO are feeling the...

This is a warranty issue. Don't loose faith. Ford will cover the repair and the dealer should replace it. Make your claim.

I am on the same boat. I had to trade in my Explorer and get the loan started. Locked in to the loan before the interest rates were raised by 3/4%. In the meantime, my truck has been in production for almost 15 days. Don't know how this production to built plays out. Don't know how often Ford...

As far as infrastructure for EV trucks and Lightnings towing trailers with pull thru stations, which are rare, I have to add that Chargepoint and Pilot/Flying J stations had signal agreement to start installing stations in specific locations of their extensive network. What happened with that...

Most of the campgrounds have 30 amps two phase 220V circuits. Some have both 30 and 50 amp 220V circuits. Your camper or RV utilizes a single phase only to power your RV. You just have to find out from the campground if their 30 amp circuit is 110V or 220V. If the circuit breaker is a double...

One more week before my Lightning Lariat goes into production. It will be here before I realize it. Join my Mach E in the driveway. There is already a waiting list from my neighbors who drive trucks to see it and ride it. Hope I don't have to run some Disney amusement ride until everyone is happy.!!

Mine is still on 6/6/22. Coincidence that a lot of Lariats are going to be built that week of June. I am optimistic that the day will hold for my order. Knowing that the interest rate will change as of this week, I am locked into a favorable interest rate. Judging though from my experience with...

I do follow what you saying. If you want to have the capability to use your vehicle to Back Power your home then you need a circuit capable of handling 80 amps. If you only need a circuit to charge the vehicle then a 60 amps circuit is just what you need. It is up to the owner but if you change...

According to what I have read Ford wants a circuit that can handle 80 Amps. You can put it on 100 amps circuit breaker but the wiring should be able to handling it. The charging station when is turned on to provide power to the home will regulate the discharge to 80 Amps or lower. The same...

Hello everyone. According to Ford the 80 Amps charging station for the Lightning should be shipped to your residence two weeks prior to the delivery of the truck. Has anyone who is taking delivery of their trucks in early May and ordered the power back up option has taken delivery of the...

I mentioned before that this may become a bloodbath but not this early in the process. Either way.....take a trip to your dealer and find out where you are in the list. My dealer has 190 reservations already. So.....if you are in the first 25 on the list.....let them know that you want to be...

As an owner of a Mach E, I had to wait 14 months for the vehicle to arrive. Needless to say.....the rumors mill was alive and well. Everyone who had reserved the Mach E wanted the vehicle as soon as possible especially the ones that ordered the FIRST EDITION.!!! A lot of people have no patience...

From what I read in this forum, many of us have reserved their Lightnings in the first 5 to 10 min after the presentation was over or when Mr Farley announced that the reservation bank was open. I thought also I was first with my dealer but I found later in the beginning of October that I was...

This maybe the your best case scenario. Go at the dealer with your mobile device. Do the ordering on line yourself while you are with your dealer and at the of the process when you will be asked to pick your dealer, you watch the order transfered to them and witness it in their order list. You...

I put mine in the first 5 minutes. That is early. Now....when in the spring of 2022 will start delivering. I am itching for mine. Good luck.

Thanks for the info. As a Mach E owner I like to give as much info to all the owners. Any questions, any doubts, any reservations are all answered thru the forum. I am one of the early reservation holders and I am looking forward to my F150 Lightning. I had to wait 14 months for my Mach E. I...

Pay attention to what Mr Palmer is saying. I am an owner of a Mach E also. I am pleasantly surprised every time I take my Mach E on long trips. Plug......get something to eat........use the bathroom and you are done. 20 to 25 min the most for me. Not enough time to enjoy your lunch break. I...
